This is how we do.
Pretty People Pictures is a genre film production company based in Denver, Colorado. Founded in 2007 by Jimmy Weber and Annie Elizabeth Baker while the two were still in film school, the company broke onto the independent film scene with the short film Incubator in 2011. The six-minute short film had an incredibly successful festival run, screening at 50 international film festivals and winning 13 awards. It played at Fantastic Fest, Fantasia, and ScreamFest and received rave reviews from major horror outlets like Rue Morgue Magazine.
In 2014, Pretty People Pictures produced EAT, an intense but intimate body horror gorefest, which was released by 1091 Media. Written, directed, and edited by Jimmy Weber, EAT premiered at the Denver Film Festival and screened at Sitges Film Festival. The film won “Best Feature Film” at both Atlanta Horror Film Festival and Sacramento Horror Film Festival. EAT is now available in the U.S. on iTunes, Amazon, and other VOD platforms. Ryan Turek, Director of Development at Blumhouse Productions, who discovered the film said, “I’ve seen so many horror films, it’s hard to find one that gets me to squirm in my seat, but Jimmy succeeded with EAT. He has served up a clever, entertaining, and extreme tale that really goes for the throat.”
In the Fall of 2018, the duo teamed up with writer/director Jon Stevenson to produce his feature film directorial debut, Rent-A-Pal. The retro thriller starring Brian Landis Folkins (Hoax) and Wil Wheaton (Stand By Me, Star Trek - The Next Generation), Kathleen Brady (Breaking Bad), and Amy Rutledge (Neighbor), was released on September 11, 2020, by IFC Midnight in 56 theaters nationwide and on-demand. The Hollywood Reporter said the film, “...expertly keeps you on edge.” And Nick Allen of RogerEbert.com said, “Wil Wheaton plays one of the scariest villains of the year in Jon Stevenson's brilliant Rent-A-Pal.”
